Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Dredge each chicken piece in flour, then dip in beaten egg, and finally coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry the chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In another pot, add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.
Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Stir in diced carrots and potatoes.
Sprinkle curry powder over the vegetables and stir to coat evenly.
Pour in chicken stock and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
Grate the apple and add it to the curry along with honey and coconut milk.
Dissolve cornstarch in a little water and stir into the curry to thicken. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Serve the curry alongside the crispy chicken cutlets over a bed of cooked white rice.
Garnish with chopped green onions and enjoy your soy-free katsu curry rice!
